Diggers of the ANZAC

Things'll never be the same in Port Lincoln

Since they rolled the cameras there

Roll up and be a movie extra

Take it lightly if you dare

Give the man a uniform

Give the man a gun

He's your younger brother

He's your only son

This is Gallipoli

They coulda been ya mates

They coulda been me

Ya can't blame a bloke who likes adventure

He saw the posters on the wall

See the world through the sights of a rifle

Grab ya mates and go to war

And give the man a bayonet

Give the man a hat

Land him on the beaches

Eight thousand never came back

A rat-a-tat-tat

This is Gallipoli

And don't you forget

You are the Diggers of the ANZAC

Slap bang in the middle of an ambush

The johnny turk was all around

Sitting ducks fled like nine-pins

But the Diggers held their ground

And men like Simpson upheld the spirit

Of the Digger who gives a mate a hand

And in the end they showed the world

The spirit of Australia

So things'll never be the same in Port Lincoln

Since they made a movie there

Knock off the shearing

And knock off the fishing

Bring up the clippers and knock off the hair

Give the man a uniform

Give the man a gun

He's your younger brother

He's your only son

This is Gallipoli

And don't you forget

You are the Diggers of the ANZAC

This is Gallipoli

And don't you forget

You are the Diggers of the ANZAC
